Did anyone mention Kirsten Joy Weiss?



"Starting later than the norm for most competition shooters, she began her Olympic-style rifle career in the latter part of her high school days, but made up for time swiftly. She won gold at the international cup at Bisley, Enlgand and received a collegiate rifle scholarship to the University of Nebraska Lincoln. From there she made the national development team, competed in the World Championships, made the Olympic short-list, won national titles, and the list continues   "

I have been trying to get her back to Nebraska- but no luck. But trust me, Ima gonna keep trying.
Not sure she would be the bast of speakers, but surely a hoot to shoot with.

Even though i have to work, i think it would be awesome to get Colion to do a live NRA Freestyle show at our meeting. But its probably too late for logistics, etc.

dont laugh but Justice Clarance Thomas.  He is a huge Nebraska fan and wants to retire in Waverly when he retires.  I would love to hear him speak on the second amendment.

I'd listen to him speak on just about anything.

I will be camping at the Heartland Shooting Park the night before the meeting.  I will be at RV pad #9.  Look for a dark gray Dodge Ram 2500 and a pull-behind pop-up camper. 

Members are welcome to join me for a cookout the night before the event.  Bring your own meat to grill and a side dish to share.

No lectures on sweeping the leg drills?  I mean, with mobility exploitation of the target, follow up evaluation becomes easier for ballistic tasking, doesn't it? 

:) 

Sounds like a great line up.  I have my ticket.
